Dear February,

I am usually like this during the month of 'love' so don't take it personally this year.

This month has had it's ups and downs.

One up being the Anti-Valentine's day party and one down being a super not-interested/attracted blind date all in the same week.

Now I totally get that last year I had a great February. I bought my first new car back on Feb. 17, 2012 and trust me, that day changed my life. I still get that "is this really my car?" feeling, but after 12 payments, that feeling has subsided just a bit. This month cost me another $250 bucks to get a new tag on it. Not great.

Besides money for a tag this month, yes you February, also strapped me for broke when I went to the pharmacy to get one prescription that costs $98.17 - trust me, I'm looking for a different generic. Yes, you read that right: almost a benjamin for a GENERIC prescription.

That doesn't even count my car note, student loan payment, cell phone bill, car insurance, and gym payments. I calculated all that out on February 1st and realized I wasn't going to be going on very many trips this month. Or looking at my paychecks - ever move out into my own apartment or buy a legit amount of groceries for clean eating. Thanking the Good Lord I still live with my parents (rent free) and they can purchase most of my meals is what I have done most of this month.

While some people might be caught up with the Love Bug still this month, I'm not.

I am ready to kill it in the gym in March. I have too many goals and this month of love, chocolate, and sour candy just isn't for me.
